The disgustingly dishonest mainstream media took all of 10 minutes (that’s a guess; it could have been less time) to blame POTUS Donald Trump for the weekend mass shooting of congregants at The Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.

That’s because blaming the president for anything and everything bad that happens in our country is not just fashionable among our Left-wing establishment media, it’s a requirement.

The shocking statements peppered social media, as leftists scrambled to score political points. The strangest missive came from GQ reporter Julia Ioffe, who wasted no time in suggesting that conservative Jews who cheered President Donald Trump’s decision to move the American embassy in Israel to the capital city of Jerusalem were responsible for a sudden rise in anti-Semitism she clearly believes precipitated Saturday’s attack.

Ioffe wrote, “And a word to my fellow American Jews: This president makes this possible. Here. Where you live. I hope the embassy move over there, where you don’t live was worth it.”

And a word to my fellow American Jews: This president makes this possible. Here. Where you live. I hope the embassy move over there, where you don’t live was worth it.

The critics were quick and voluminous. One, Sean Davis, who co-founded The Federalist, responded, “Did you just blame a man whose daughter is an Orthodox Jew–the same one you were fired for attacking–for murdering Jews?”

Only the Left doesn’t know who’s really responsible

Ioffe proceeded to defend her disgusting statement for about 24 hours before finally deleting it, The Daily Wire reported, but there is no denying that’s the way she actually feels because first responses are almost always the most truthful.

How do we know? Because Ioffe subsequently wrote a defense of her tweet in – where else? – The Washington Post, in which she blamed the president’s “demagoguery” as being responsible for the actions of a deranged anti-Semite who, again, is no fan of his.

It wasn’t just the Left-wing media blaming the president. Many of the perpetually triggered anti-Trump Hollywood Left had to chime in to virtue signal as well, Breitbart News reports.

“As an American Jew I feel nauseous. And if you support Donald Trump you should too because this shit is on YOU. IT’S YOUR FAULT. Remember that tonight as you’re trying to go to sleep,” wrote obscure actor Ike Barinholtz, immediately trashing nearly 65 million Americans who voted for the president.

Other actors and actresses piled on, which they always do given any opportunity to insult the president no matter how inappropriate. Listing what they wrote and said is pointless because it seems they all try to out-outrage each other.

Meanwhile, POTUS Trump was clear and, well, presidential, in his response to the horrific shootings. “All of America is in mourning over the mass murder of Jewish Americans at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. We pray for those who perished and their loved ones, and our hearts go out to the brave police officers who sustained serious injuries,” he said.

What’s also true is that POTUS Trump has been Israel’s biggest ally and friend in years. Barack Obama consistently undermined the Jewish state’s political process while endangering its national security by making a “nuclear deal” with Iran in which he paid the regime $1.7 billion in cash.

The Pittsburgh shooting wasn’t POTUS Trump’s fault. It was Robert Bowers’ fault. Only the Left doesn’t get that.
